Composite Cutting Tools

TOOLING FOR COMPOSITES

Composites (carbon fiber reinforced polymers) in manufacturing have grown significantly.

Diamond is an ideal material for manufacturing cutting tools due to its extreme hardness, wear resistance, and thermal conductivity. All non-ferrous materials can be machined with PCD tools, including chipboards, HDF, laminated boards, materials used by the automotive industry to make aluminium components, and lightweight materials, such as carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), metal matrix composites (MMC) and stacks for aircraft construction.
